Display apparatus

Abstract

A display apparatus includes a display panel, a backlight, a pair of inverter circuit boards that are respectively arranged in vicinities of end portions in a longitudinal direction of a hack side of the display panel, and an expansion slot unit having an expansion slot, a case that includes a slit serving as an opening through which a expansion board to be inserted into the expansion slot is inserted and can guide and house the expansion hoard, and an expansion slot board, the expansion slot unit being arranged on the back side of the display panel to be adjacent to a side of one of the pair of the inverter circuit boards and the slit being provided in an open state at a position separated from the side edge of the display panel by more than a length in an insertion direction of the expansion board that is inserted.

The invention claimed is: 
     
       1. A display apparatus comprising:
 a display panel; 
 a backlight serving as a light source of the display panel; 
 a pair of inverter circuit hoards that are respectively arranged in vicinities of end portions in a longitudinal direction of a back side of the display panel and supply power to the backlight; 
 an expansion slot unit having an expansion slot into which an expansion board can be inserted, a case that includes a slit serving as an opening through which the expansion board to be inserted into the expansion slot is inserted and can guide and house the expansion board, and an expansion slot board which is connected to the expansion slot; and 
 a main board connected to a terminal group capable of wired communication with external devices on the back side of the display panel, 
 wherein the expansion slot unit is arranged on the back side of the display panel to be adjacent to a side of one of the pair of the inverter circuit boards, 
 the slit is provided in an open state at a position separated from the side edge of the display panel by more than a length in an insertion direction of the expansion hoard that is inserted, and 
 the main board includes a cutaway portion that is cut away in a shape corresponding to the shape of the expansion slot unit.
